- Russia’s SPOT system aims to boost VAT revenue by confirming expected delivery of goods with advance tax payment.
- The system is projected to generate 300 billion rubles from 2026 to 2028.
- It is included in the budget as a source of VAT growth for the second year.
- The system targets tax evasion and illegal import schemes.
- Current VAT payment is made after goods acceptance, but SPOT changes this process.
